16 February 2026: Weak Start Amid Market Gains

Ecos (India) Mobility & Hospitality Ltd opened the week at Rs.170.65, down 1.33% from the previous close, despite the Sensex rising 0.70% to 36,787.89. The stock’s decline contrasted with the broader market optimism, signalling early signs of investor caution. Trading volume was relatively low at 3,608 shares, indicating limited buying interest. This initial weakness set the tone for the week’s downward trajectory.

18 February 2026: New 52-Week and All-Time Lows Signal Deepening Pressure

The stock plunged sharply on 18 February, hitting a 52-week low of Rs.163.05 and an all-time low intraday price of Rs.165.25. It closed the day at Rs.161.65, down 5.22%, significantly underperforming the Sensex which gained 0.43%. This marked the sixth consecutive session of decline, with the stock losing over 21% in this period. The steep fall reflected growing concerns over the company’s recent flat quarterly results and diminishing institutional support, as investors reacted negatively to the lack of earnings growth despite strong long-term sales and operating profit expansion.

19 February 2026: Intraday Recovery Amid Persistent Weakness

On 19 February, Ecos (India) Mobility & Hospitality Ltd showed some resilience, registering an intraday high of Rs.167.50, a 3.62% gain from the previous close. However, it ultimately closed at Rs.162.65, a modest 0.62% increase for the day. This slight recovery occurred despite the broader market’s decline, with the Nifty falling 1.41%. The stock’s ability to outperform its sector by 1.97% during the session suggested a tentative pause in the downtrend, though it remained below all key moving averages, indicating ongoing bearish momentum.

20 February 2026: Fresh 52-Week and All-Time Low Amid Market Gains

The stock declined further on 20 February, hitting a new 52-week and all-time low of Rs.157.80, closing at Rs.158.10, down 2.80% on the day. This decline occurred despite the Sensex gaining 0.41%, highlighting the stock’s relative weakness within the transport services sector. The stock underperformed its sector by 2.19%, reflecting ongoing investor scepticism. Institutional investors reduced their holdings by 2.32% in the previous quarter, now holding 15.19%, which may have contributed to the subdued demand. The company’s Mojo Score remains at 44.0 with a ‘Sell’ rating, downgraded from ‘Hold’ in November 2025, underscoring the cautious market outlook.
